how ..

how do you explain it?
that excitement, some kind of yearning, a source like it's oozing out of you
that smirk on that face, that kind of glee from within.. like you just cant Wait!
that certain moment, often too short to relish..
what does it take for you to have that rush? yes, rush..
u know?.. how it catches you off guard suddenly and throws you into a spasm!
graphically, i guess you could imagine how a strong wave bashes the shore.. how it slams right in, receding just in time for you to catch the tailend .. too short! it's too short..!

if so happen say, you're fortunate enough to find that moment in the form of a song, a certain current favorite, or from a certain episode of a drama, or a certain act from a movie, you could, of course, prolong the experience, with the Replay button.
just like how after catching the tailend of the first wave, there'd be, i bet it's safe enough to say, always a second wave coming ...

but alas, like all things in life, (it's bound to happen!) .. after repeated plays, as with the continuous waves, the rush eventually trickles into a stream.. waveless, calm, even characterless ... and that, would be: The.Worst.Part.

we are all whetted through our senses .. visually, auditory, and of course, touch, smell, & taste.
often, these defining moments, are fleeting ..
Life, is.. fleeting. Capture it the best you can.
